From a New York Times bestselling and Hugo award-winning author comes a modern masterwork of science fiction, introducing a captain, his crew, and a detective as they unravel a horrifying solar system wide conspiracy that begins with a single missing girl. With over 10 million copies sold, The Expanse has become one of the biggest science fiction phenomenons of the decade.

Now a Prime Original series.

HUGO AWARD WINNER FOR BEST SERIES

Humanity has colonized the solar system—Mars, the Moon, the Asteroid Belt and beyond—but the stars are still out of our reach.

Jim Holden is XO of an ice miner making runs from the rings of Saturn to the mining stations of the Belt. When he and his crew stumble upon a derelict ship, the Scopuli, they find themselves in possession of a secret they never wanted. A secret that someone is willing to kill for—and kill on a scale unfathomable to Jim and his crew. War is brewing in the system unless he can find out who left the ship and why.

Detective Miller is looking for a girl. One girl in a system of billions, but her parents have money and money talks. When the trail leads him to the Scopuli and rebel sympathizer Holden, he realizes that this girl may be the key to everything.

Holden and Miller must thread the needle between the Earth government, the Outer Planet revolutionaries, and secretive corporations—and the odds are against them. But out in the Belt, the rules are different, and one small ship can change the fate of the universe.

"Interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written." —George R. R. Martin

Big fan of the show. Keep telling myself I need to check out the books someday and this is a great price if you don't feel like waiting for a copy to come available on Libby.

I started with this one in 2019 on a similar deal. I haven't read it as I got the Audible shortly after. Over the years I've just collected the Kindle versions of 6 or 7 of them. I prefer the Audible versions and just finished collecting recently.

In any large volume set, just start with the ones you find cheaply and when you're close to completing the set you can start into them. Use holiday sales and discounts on subscription to snag some expensive book numbered ones. That's how I've collected all of the Audibles.

I've watched the series almost 3 times; so getting a few more details and extension of events is nice.

Don't forget the Memories Legion is the complete novellas and will fit in between some of the set books. That can be cheaper to get during holidays rather than collecting individual novellas

I started the books, on book 4. Following up after each book with the show to keep me motivated. It's fun. The show does the books justice. The books are great too!

Did not care for the show, but this is my favorite book series. Love the way the writers build the world, culture, and characters. Each chapter is told from the point of view of a different character and you really get to learn how each ones brain works and how they perceive the world around them. I recommend this series to everyone.

My plan has been to pick up where the show left off first. My buddy has read them all and told me it's a good adaptation of the books. I'm curious if the new game will be any good.

Oh yeah, I'm all about the audiobooks. I love the free Audible deals and have collected so many books from them.

I like that these are also available on Libby. I just have to get in queue and wait forever haha. It's also nice that you can buy a cheap ebook version and then get an upgrade to the Audible version for a decent price. I've done that with a few books.
